James Wood died in New York on
Monday leaving q fortune OF two mil
lion dollars. At seventeen years OF age
he came to New York from Emriskiller,
Ireland, and within three months had
saved sufficient to buy horse and cart
from his wages as day laborer, adding
another team by frugality and industry,
and wi hin five years he had thirty
horses and carts and employed an army
of laborers. From this he engaged in
building houses by contract and buying
real estate in the upper part of New
York. He was Methodist and gave
large sums of money to that denomina-
ton, and his home was always open to
clergymen, and at conference time he
entertained as many as his house would
hold. True, he was remarkable man,
being over six feet in height and of very
strong physique. But the lesson OF his
life of success is one that many Ameri-
can boys with better opportunities can
study with benefit. Especially those
who stand idly and complain that they
can find no opening for their abilities.
He took the first opening and made the
most of it'll Trenton Emporium.

Judge Magic, in matter of contested
election in Morristown, has taken grounds
which show that his judicial opinions are
not formed on the model of the MoDer-
motifs and Hndspeths, who conducted the
case of Walter against Jones. In that
memorable contest, it win be remembered,
the Democrats insisted, and the Assembly
agreed, that ballot that bore upon 1t the
name of two candidates for the same Of
fice--Jones and Walter for Assembly.
man-should be counted. And 1t was
counted for Walter, who was thus Illegal
ly elected by one majority. If that bal.
lot had been rejected, as the Court said it
should be, there would have been a tie.

ton, where two men were candidates for

ballot on which the names OF both men

wish Mr.. Denman's name printed on 1t
and had written Mr.. Walton's name there
upon without scratching the other. On
an appeal to Judge Magic, the count be-
ing contested, that fuDctionary decided
that where two names appesred on one
ballot, for the same Office, neither should
be counted. This is in accordance with
law, precedent and the common principles
Of equity. But, as before intimated, Mr..
Allan McDermott, Mr.. Hudspeth, and
''the gang" generally, do not agree with
either law, precedent or equity.

Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1887-12-25
A Card from NIr. Elan.

We publish as a matter of justice to
Mr.. ELAN what he has to say in reply to
Mr.. RIDDLEBERGER's last speech in the
United States Senate. We Tecollect the
circulars alluded 70 by Mr.. ELAN.
TBEvHAN's, Va, Dec. %, 1887.
To he Editor OF tie Dispatch:
IN yesterdays Dispatch l see that Mr..
Riddleberger made statement Wednes-
day on the floor of the United States
Senate in reply to statement recently
made bv me IN the House OF Delegates
with respect to General Mahones atti-
tude toward the Blair school bill. Now,
il IS fact that Mr. Riddlebcrger admits
land which the Congressional RCcOW
proves) that General Malone did vote
Tor and speak for the Blair bill on It's
secoud passage in the Senate. Mr. Rid
dleberger also admits that General Ma
hone favored the bill in its original form,
but asserts that General Malone declined
to vote for it on its first passage Tin 1854
because he was opposed TO it by reason
of It's having been 50 amended as to re-
move from 1t certain provisions for Fede-
raj supervision IN the application OF the
money appropriated 10 the schools Of the
States.
There never has been any question
that General Malone did not like the
striking out Of the provisions referred to.
He freely stated to everybody who con-
versed with him on the subject that he
feared the southern Democrats would
not deal fairly with the money, but he
never opposed the bill, as the state Re-
publican platforms of 1884 and 1885 at
test it being certain that il he had op-
posed the bill these platforms would
have testified to that opposition III defe-
renee to his senatorial position as well as
TO his Craftsmanship Of the party, and
because of the implicit reliance placed in
his knowledge and judgment by the
party with respect to Federal questions.
Moreover, it was in 1884, after the
Blair bill had first passed the Senate, and
the House of Representatives had de-
clined TO consider it, that General
Malone, as state chairman, had pre-
pared, printed, and distributed those
striking tabular statements, showing how
every county, city, ana town III virginia
would be benefited under the Blair bill
how much money would come to each /;
how many new schools it would estab-
ish, and how many additional scholars
would thereby be provided for You
saw copies OF these documents, for You
referred to them at the time and l put
it to YOU squarely, if it were possible for
any but an ardent friend of the Blair
bin TO prepare and distribute them {?
What construction Mr.. Riddleberger or
others may have put upon General
Mahone's private remarks upon the
Blair bill at that time amounts to
nothing in face of the platforms of
1884 and 1885, the tabular statements
strewn broadcast by him in 1884, and
other evidence Of like conclusive cha
racter. w. G. ELAN.
